The Ship Will Sail 7-Day Cruises to MexicoĪpart from an inaugural three-day cruise, the Panorama will run a regular seven-day sailing from Long Beach to Cabo San Lucas, Mazatlan, and Puerto Vallarta before returning to California. The first cruise is slated for December 11, 2019. We think that shows a major dedication to west coast cruising when it’s normally Florida that gets the attention from most cruise lines. Carnival has had ships positioned here for years, but it’s first new ship to call the port home in 20 years. One of the biggest developments around the Carnival Panorama is that it will be homeported in Long Beach. Panorama Will Sail From Long Beach Starting December 2019 That ship is slated for delivery in 2020 and will sail from Port Canaveral. Carnival has started building on the Carnival Mardi Gras that is said to be 180,000 tons - or about 35% larger by weight. That will make the ship the largest in the Carnival fleet (tied with other Vista-class ships) and mean plenty of room for activities aboard the ship. Like her sister ships, the Panorama is slated to come in at 1,055 feet and 133,500 tons.

As a sister to the Vista and Horizon, there will be many similar features that have made these ships the top of their class… along with some specific changes to the Panorama that will make it stand out.

So far the news coming from the Panorama points to a ship that’s going to turn heads and make headlines. And there’s always a steady stream of details to get passengers excited about sailing. Of course, any new ship coming out is always big news. The Vista-class ship - a sister to Carnival Vista and Carnival Horizon - is currently under construction and scheduled to set sail in late 2019. That’s the name of Carnival’s newest addition to its fleet. If you haven’t yet heard the name Carnival Panorama, then you soon will.
